Gastite

Happy Halloween from the Gastite team!

A first-time Python user said it best: "First time using Python, and I love it. I'll definitely use it again because of the line sets and fittings."

That's the reaction we hear most, try it once, trust it from then on.

Rework used to mean tossing out fittings and starting over.

FlashShield+'s XR3 fittings are built to come apart and go back together without losing their seal, so a change in the run doesn't cost you a trip to buy new hardware.

Every fitting stays part of the job, even after the plan changes.

Copper fights every bend you ask it to make.

Python bends by hand into tight spaces without kinking, so a crawlspace or an awkward joist doesn't turn into an extra hour on the clock.

Lighter in your hands and easier through a tight run, that's the difference contractors notice on the very first install.

For the third year in a row, Gastite had the privilege of joining the judging team at the Portland West Middle School Robotics Competition.

Brandon Perkins and Dustin Beck represented Gastite as judges and helped evaluate the students’ robots, while our HR team was on-site handling team member check-in.

This event is one of our favorite days of the year. It gives us a chance to support our local schools, meet talented students, and see their creativity and problem-solving skills up close. We’re proud to continue our partnership with Portland West and to invest in the next generation of engineers and innovators.

Congratulations to every student who competed this year 🤖💙

Python's cutting tools just make every install a little easier.

The upgraded blade design delivers cleaner, more precise cuts on multilayer Python pipe.

Grab the Standard Cutter for everyday jobs on any pipe size, or reach for the Close Quarter Cutter when you're working in tight spaces and need that same clean cut in a smaller profile.

Built by pros, for pros.

Summer job sites are already hot enough.

Adding an open flame to the equation puts crews, structures, and schedules at risk, one accidental fire can shut a job down faster than anything else on the calendar.

Python eliminates that risk. Compression fittings connect without a torch, meaning no open flame, no fire watch, and no worrying about what's behind the wall when the heat kicks on.

Safer installs, faster connections, and a crew that goes home the same way they showed up.

Not all line sets are built the same.

While traditional copper line sets demand a torch, fight you on every bend, and get scrapped the moment a run changes, Python was designed around the way pros do the work.

Python offers a design that doesn't require any brazing or flaring. It is also lightweight enough to carry up a ladder without thinking twice, flexible enough to route through any crawlspace, and compatible with A2L refrigerants the industry is already moving toward.

One more thing... if the run changes, coil it back up. Python goes back on the truck, not in the dumpster.

The finished job should look as good as it performs.

FlashShield+'s Modular Stub System creates clean, fixed termination points on walls and floors without the extra joints that come from fabricating stub-outs from rigid materials.

Fewer joints, cleaner connections, and an install built to last.
